Types of TV Programs

Everyone is unique and everybody loves something different. This applies to people's tastes in everything. We don't like one type of food, we listen to some specific music, we don't like to wear similar clothes, we don't even like to talk like others. And concerning TV shows our tastes are also different. Some of us like comedy shows, others like watch news or only soap operas. It all depends of the personality you have! Well, it's hard to even count how many types of shows (or television programs) there are on modern television.

- Soap operas are probably most widespread and popular types of TV shows all over the world. They are both loved by the audience and the TV producers as well – the more people watch them, the more money they'll get. The main feature of soap operas is of course showing the twists and turns of lives of the main characters.

- Comedy shows. The subgenres of this genre are numerous: improvisational comedy, stand-up comedy, musical comedy and many others. The world famous comedy shows are The Benny Hill Show, Mr. Bean and many others.

- Animated television shows, or cartoons are most loved by younger viewers. There are many types of animated shows now, and many of them are not even intended to be watched by children.

- Talk Shows or chat show is a television or radio program where one person (or group of people) will discuss various topics. Sometimes, talk shows feature a panel of guests, usually consisting of a group of people who are learned or who have great experience in relation to whatever issue is being discussed on the show for that episode. Other times, a single guest discusses their work or area of expertise with a host.
